"Are you okay?" My breath quickens, And my heart races What can I do? What should I say? My mind runs in circles, And my hands begin to shake. Why is he asking? Does he actually care? My posture starts to shift, And my eyes begin to dart. How should I act? Why did you ask? Inside I start to scream, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know! Outside I calmly state, "Yeah, I'm fine."

"Are You Okay?"
"Are you okay?" My breath quickens, And my heart races What can I do? What should I say? My mind runs in circles, And my hands begin to shake. Why is he asking? Does he actually care? My posture starts to shift, And my eyes begin to dart. How should I act? Why did you ask? Inside I start to scream, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know! Outside I calmly state, "Yeah, I'm fine."
I don't know why these questions trip me up so badly.....
